Hey so I new on the Scp foudation, and I wanted to try my hand at creating some SCPs. I had a great idea recently for an SCP. It;s not fleshed out just yet, but I think it's a good start. So here: it's a bird of prey, like an osprey, but instead of feeding on meat, it gains energy by absrobing pure electricty. It can also discharge that electricty in times of crisis, like an electric eel. I got this Idea from the native american legends of the thunderbird. If you think it's a good idea, please leave me some contructive feedback.

I'm going to say this: you haven't given us anywhere near enough info to determine if this idea is or is not good or worth pursuing.

A SCP isn't a report on an object, it's often a story dressed up to look like a report on an object. It's not about what the object is, but the kind of impact the object leaves in its wake, its role in the universe, how people respond to it, things like that.

To hammer this point home, very few ideas that can be described in a single scentence are good on their own. By default, no, a statue that moves when you don't look at it, a tape of Regan cut up while talking, a chained monster behind a door, an endless Ikea, or a guy who appears to those about to die alone aren't good ideas on their own. The scentence that comes after? That the statue is part of a collection to an organization that finds it relatively mundane? That an entity has possessed that tape for unknown ends and can see those who watch it? That the monster will end the world once it inevitably breaks free and that any Procedures done are for the sake of keeping morale up? That the Ikea is home to inhuman, monsterous "Staff" and humans trapped inside form tribes for their own protection? That the man only appears so that people never have to die alone if they have lived most of their life poor and alone? That is when the SCP starts becoming one. Each one of those SCPs I linked to are the highest-rated in their series for a good reason, and it's not because of what the SCP is, but what the SCP is about.

So, you have an electricity-earing bird that zaps things in times of crisis. What's the second scentence there? What is the SCP about?
